Fine here Bob, 55 degrees and a nice brisk breeze Wasn't really that bad here, lots of rain but no strong gale force winds. Rivers are high and some parts of town flooded. A few families had to evacuate but nothing in My neighborhood. No injuries reported in town. Surrounding areas were reporting worse flooding. We were lucky here in the Northern Berkshires of Western Massachusetts, Irene came, rolled right over Us but She was kind in Her brief visit. I hope others fared as well!

DId good here in SC Bob....some wind and rain, but, we get worse in our typical afternoon storms...I think our highest gust was around 40mph..we can get up to 60 and more in thunderstorms..we were prepared for the worse but got the best..we were some of the lucky ones...There were trees down in Myrtle, some beach erosion and downtown Charleston was flooded for a bit but all is ok...Now we have another one heading west should get our(USA) way in a week....

Currently power outages, flooding and downed trees are still making things difficult here. Fortunately the power went back on at my dad's place after being out for a day and a half. At my house we are at three days and counting. We can cope, but for a while I was tearing my hair out trying to think of a safe place to take Dad.
